Saiprasad rejoins Kashyap at SoftBank

Priya Saiprasad, a former founding principal at M12, the corporate venturing arm of US-based software producer Microsoft, has rejoined her former boss, Nagraj Kashyap, at SoftBank Investment Advisers.

Kashyap, a GCV Powerlist 2020 award winner, joined SoftBank earlier this year as a managing partner for its two Vision Funds.

Saiprasad had left M12 in mid-2019 for a venture investor role at venture capital firm Mayfield Fund.

Saiprasad was a founding member of M12 in September 2016 and oversaw investments in business-to-business software providers, including WorkboardGo1 and Skedulo.
